Aurora wanted to reject even that, but the cold, hard look on Theodore's face frightened her.

Before she could speak, Theodore decided, "That settles it, then."

It was a decision where both of them compromised and met in the middle.

Aurora thought it wasn't good to reject him again, so she said, "Alright, thank you. If you ever need my help in the future, you can..."
